Thanks for the compliments, guys. The idea for the indicator came from sight gauges mounted to the side of a fluid reservoir such as hydraulic. Saying that makes we wonder if there would be another way of doing this by replacing the cable with a fluid filled tube. A little piston fitting closely inside the tube and pushed by the cylinder rod would raise and lower the fluid level in the sight gauge. There's probably a dozen reasons why that wouldn't work, but I enjoy thinking outside the box a little now and then.
